Concubine Zhao in the palace carefully accompanied the emperor, and she was summoned by the emperor to accompany the imperial study every day these days.

The emperor didn't talk to her much, just sat quietly and reviewed the folds, and sometimes let her stand aside and serve the pen and ink. Everyone in the palace said that she was favored, but only she knew that even if the emperor came to her palace, he was just sitting and drinking tea, and he seemed to be watching someone through her.

Seeing that it was almost time for lunch, she said softly: "Your Majesty, it's time for lunch." ”

The emperor looked up from the pile of twists and turns, looking like a Zhao concubine with a somewhat restrained face. He looked dazed for a moment before putting down the pen in his hand and nodded.

"Well, let's pass the meal."

Getting up from the front of the imperial case, he walked towards the inner hall, and Concubine Zhao hurriedly followed.

As soon as the meal was placed on the table, a small eunuch ran in. Gonggong Chen looked at the little eunuch who came in and walked over quickly.

"What's the matter?"

"Prince Yi is out asking to see him."

Hearing this, Gonggong Chen hurriedly turned around and walked to the emperor's side, and whispered, "Your Majesty, Prince Yi asks to see you." ”

As he said this, out of the corner of his eye, he glanced at Concubine Zhao, who was sitting quietly on the side. This person is too similar to that person, and I don't know that Prince Yi is here for this.

The emperor was stunned for a moment, and just about to say something, Concubine Zhao got up very consciously and whispered: "Your Majesty, the concubines should go to the back first." ”

"You go back first." The emperor thought about it and waved his hand to let Concubine Zhao go back first.

Zhao Concubine was blessed and turned to leave after answering. I didn't know what the prince wanted her to do before, but now that she knows a lot of things after entering the palace, she is not stupid and naturally knows what the prince wants her to do.

When Li Zeyi walked into the imperial study, he happened to meet Concubine Zhao who came out of it, the woman lowered her head, and he could only see the top of her hair.

The two only greeted slightly, and Li Zeyi did not embarrass her, and let her leave. It wasn't until the figure disappeared that he withdrew his gaze and walked inside.

Concubine Zhao walked out of the imperial study, but her back was already wet with cold sweat in the mild and pleasant weather. This Prince Yi's gaze was too cold, and the momentum on his body was very compelling. Beside him, she didn't even dare to raise her head.

She turned her head to look at the imperial study behind her, anxious in her heart, did she really want to be an enemy of such a dangerous person? She had a miserable life, and was finally rescued by well-wishers, thinking that she would be better off later, who would have thought that she would be sent to the palace to accompany the emperor.

With a faint sigh, she took the palace man's hand and walked away.

The emperor looked at his son who walked in, and a loving smile appeared on his face: "You haven't had lunch yet, have you?" Come here, use it with me. ”

Li Zeyi sat next to the emperor, and someone immediately added a pair of dishes and chopsticks.

"See her?"

"Yes." Li Zeyi's voice was a little muffled, and he was not very happy to hear it.

The emperor looked at him and stretched out his hand to pat him: "No one can replace your mother's position in my heart, I just went to your mother's place to see it, and I met a person who is eight or nine points similar to your mother, all this is too coincidental, and she just wants to see what the people behind her want to do." ”

When Li Zeyi heard this, he raised his head sharply. He didn't know that his father knew everything, but he didn't tell anyone.

The emperor sighed, and put a chopstick of sweet and sour pork ribs into his bowl: "I remember that your favorite is this sweet and sour short rib, come and try it." ”

Li Zeyi swallowed back what he wanted to ask here, as long as his father was clear in his heart. He nodded, and then also took a pair of chopsticks of egg yolk and pumpkin to the emperor.

"Father, you eat it too."

The father and son had a very warm lunch, and the emperor took his son back to the front after lunch.

"I know what you want to ask this time, you don't need to ask more, I know many things in my heart, and I have my own arrangements."

"The son believes in his father." Li Zeyi pursed his lips lightly, and only after a long time did he speak: "Father, the crown prince ......"

The emperor waved his hand and stopped him from saying, "You go back." ”

Li Zeyi moved the corners of his mouth, and finally didn't say anything, got up and left.

Lin Guo Gong's Mansion

Lin Zhuohua sat bored in the gazebo in the garden, and the warm wind blew through, blowing the broken hair on her forehead. She reached out and hooked her hair behind her ear, and turned her head to ask Bai Yu beside her.

"Isn't there any news from Luo Yusheng?"

Bai Yu shook his head: "No, it's been several days since this happened, and no news has come from it." However, the tiger girl has already returned to the medical valley, but Wei Ru is still staying in the medical building and has not left. ”

Lin Zhuohua's eyebrows furrowed slightly, now that the medical valley is no longer aimed at the medical building, maybe it is time to talk to Weiruo. Thinking like this, she put down the teacup in her hand and got up to command.

"Prepare the carriage and go to the medical building."

Bai Yu was entangled for a moment: "Miss, do you still want to bring those guards?" ”

……

How did she forget about it!

"No, I'll go over as Jing Gongzi."

The carriage waited at the door in the middle of nowhere, and the alley here was almost unoccupied. Lin Zhuohua was dressed in a cyan robe with a mask on his face. She glanced around, and when she was sure there was no one, she immediately got into the carriage.

Every time she comes out as Jing Gongzi, she will use her mental power to find out if there is anyone staring in the dark, and if there is, she will let a few people in the cold winter lure people away, so as not to bring unnecessary trouble. This time it was strange, no one in the dark was staring at the Guogong Mansion.

Recently, she was dragged by her mother to the dowry list, and she didn't have much time to inquire about outside affairs.

"What's going on in Beijing lately?"

"There's really one thing, but it's just a matter in the palace. I heard that the emperor has a new beauty, and she is very favored. After sleeping overnight, she was named a concubine and given the title of Zhaozi. In just a few days, she was once again promoted to Concubine Zhao. This speed is shocking, and now there are faint rumors that Concubine Zhao is a demon concubine who has brought disaster to the country and the people. ”

Lin Zhuohua was a little stunned when she heard it, she really didn't see that the emperor would do such a thing. After all, the emperor's age is not too young now, and although there is no big problem with his body, it is not as good as when he was in his prime.

"Do you know Concubine Zhao's background?"

This Concubine Zhao appeared abruptly, especially at such a special time.

Although the beauty trick is old-fashioned, it does work. How many heroes have been defeated by the beauty in the end, which makes her very curious about what a stunning beauty this Concubine Zhao is.

The carriage drove smoothly all the way to the medical building, and she got out of the carriage and was immediately welcomed in by the shopkeeper.

"Go ahead and leave me alone." Lin Zhuohua waved his hand, and then remembered the purpose of coming today: "By the way, you will call Wei Wei to the attic to see me." ”

"Yes, Childe."

The shopkeeper said respectfully and turned to leave.

Lin Zhuohua took Bai Yu and a few people towards the backyard and sat down in the hall of the attic. Immediately someone brought tea and walked out.

After a while, Wei Ruo followed the shopkeeper over and saluted when he saw her.

"I've seen Childe, Childe's name is Wei Ruolai, but what's the matter?"

Lin Zhuohua smiled slightly: "Girl Weiruo, I really want to talk to you about something when I called you here today." ”

She waved her hand to let the shopkeeper go down, and then Bai Yu and the others walked to the door to guard, not letting anyone approach.

"Girl, sit." She gestured to the chair across from her, then poured a cup of tea and handed it over.

Wei Ru was a little surprised, but he still obediently sat on the chair and waited for her to speak.

"My son is not the same as the slight girl, so let's say it. What is the purpose of your visit to my hospital? Or what is the purpose of the medical valley? "Search

Slightly stunned, she didn't do anything after she got here. Only focused on studying the prescriptions of the medical building, and seized every opportunity to consult this Jing Gongzi, who was extremely powerful in medical skills, she really didn't know how he knew that he was a disciple of the Medical Valley.

Could it be that another person has been exposed? Thinking that the other person had already left the hospital building, I was even more sure of this idea.

"Since Childe already knows Weiruo's identity, then Weiru won't hide it from Childe. Weiru does have a task on his body, but he doesn't care whether the son believes it or not. Weiru doesn't have bad intentions, but simply wants to learn medical skills. As for my master's purpose, she didn't tell me. ”

She wasn't lying, her master was extremely cautious. I didn't trust her very much, and I didn't tell her the real purpose, just let her pay attention to the internal affairs of the medical building, let her enter the inside, and it was best to get in touch with some core pharmaceutical secrets.

But she has been here for so long and has learned a lot, and this Jing Gongzi doesn't hide it at all. The pills sold in the medical building all have the detailed steps of making them and the medicinal materials needed, and they are clearly written.

Even in the Medical Valley, some of the core prescriptions will not be told to them.

Lin Zhuohua stared at her eyes for a long time before slowly retracting his gaze and said lightly: "I believe you, but I'm afraid that you, a disciple of the Medical Valley, are not suitable to continue to stay in the medical building." The other one of you has also left, shouldn't you leave too? ”

Pursing his lips slightly, he shook his head for a long time: "I don't want to leave." ”

Lin Zhuohua's mind moved: "If you don't want to leave, then you can only leave the Medical Valley." ”

I was slightly stunned, and my heart was very entangled. Although the master did not value her as much as the other senior sisters and sisters, he also taught her for a long time. And betraying the master is not a good reputation, if it is spread, I am afraid that it will be extremely bad for her reputation.

"I won't force you, think for yourself. I'll come back in three days and let me know when you're ready. ”

After speaking, she asked Wei Ruo to leave, and then she also left the medical building with Bai Yu and a few people.

Lin Zhuohua sat in the carriage and looked at the bustling and noisy street market outside.

"Go to Prince Yi's Mansion."

She thought for a moment and opened her mouth to give a command.

When he arrived at Prince Yi's mansion, the housekeeper had just sent Li Zeyi away, and when he saw her coming down, he immediately greeted her.

"It's really unfortunate that Jing Gongzi has just left. If you have anything, you can tell the old slave, and when the prince returns, the old slave will definitely report back. ”

Lin Zhuohua's eyebrows frowned slightly when he heard this: "Prince Yi said when he will come back?" ”

"It's probably going to be evening." The housekeeper knew that the relationship between Jing Gongzi and his prince was not ordinary, so he didn't hide it.

Lin Zhuohua was a little disappointed when she heard this, and she didn't know why she suddenly wanted to see Li Zeyi. It's just a coincidence that he came by himself, he just left.

"Then ask the housekeeper to take the word, if the prince comes back, he can ask him to go to the Guogong Mansion."

The housekeeper nodded hurriedly: "Okay." ”

Seeing Jing Gongzi's carriage leave, the housekeeper couldn't help but sigh, the relationship between Jing Gongzi and Lord Ronghua was really extraordinary. Fortunately, this Jing Gongzi doesn't look like he loves the lord of Ronghua, otherwise their prince would really have one more rival.

Lin Zhuohua didn't see Li Zeyi, but as soon as he returned to his room, he saw Mu Min sitting in the room. Slightly surprised, she walked forward quickly. Fortunately, before she came back, she changed back to the dress she wore on weekdays.

"Mu Min, why are you here?"

Come so swaggeringly, aren't you afraid of being seen by Mama Dong? Last time, she brought Mu Min over and glanced at Lin Youran from a distance. Mama Dong was led away by Mu Min's people, so she was not discovered.

"I didn't come in through the main entrance." Mu Min was a little embarrassed to speak, after all, it was not good for the master to sit in someone's house without her, and it was the first time she had done such a thing.

Lin Zhuohua saw that she was a little embarrassed, smiled slightly and didn't care. When she left, she took Bai Yu and the others away, this courtyard can prevent Lin Youran and others, but it can't stop people who know martial arts.

"Looks like you're looking for me."

She sat down on the side and asked Bai Yu to prepare some snacks and send them over.

Mu Min nodded: "My people discovered one thing after luring Dong Qin away last time, she has already practiced the Soul Control Gu. And this soul control Gu seems to be a little different, it is suspected to be raised with people's heart's blood. ”

？？？

Soul Control Gu? What is this, are you Gu Clan going to heaven?

"Soul Control Gu? What's that? "Lin Zhuohua admires the Gu clan a lot, it is really a mysterious and powerful clan, thanks to the fact that there are very few people in their clan, otherwise they would not have to destroy the Three Kingdoms!

Mu Min briefly introduced the role of the Soul Control Gu, in fact, this Soul Control Gu was included in one of the forbidden techniques of the Gu Clan, and it was not allowed to be used. But she didn't expect that Dong Qin, an old woman, was so bold that she would dare to raise this Gu.

This Gu is not difficult to raise, but the lethality is too great, so it has become the forbidden technique of the Gu clan. If anyone dares to use this Gu, they must accept the most severe punishment from the Gu clan, and throw people into the Ten Thousand Gu Cave, just by hearing the name, they know that it is a very terrifying place.

There are quite a few people in the Gu Clan who know this, but no one dares to cultivate it.

"Then this Gu may be solved?"

Lin Zhuohua's eyebrows beat wildly, and he always felt that this thing must have been cultivated by Lin Youran for Mama Dong, what did she want to do when she made such a soul control Gu? This is simply more terrifying than that Heartthirsty Gu, controlling a person in minutes.

"Of course it can be solved, but after solving this Gu, the body of the Gu person will also decay rapidly, although it will not die immediately, but it can only be raised on the bed for a long time, and the medicine will not leave the mouth."

Mu Min's face was very ugly, this time she had to arrest people back, it seemed that she was going to write a letter back, and she had to send some more people over.

Lin Zhuohua breathed a sigh of relief, as long as he could solve it.

"Did you tell Li Zeyi about this?"

Mu Min shook his head: "He's been busy these days and can't see anyone, besides, your sister asked Dong Qin's old wife to train him, so he should be here to deal with you." ”

Lin Zhuohua is not as simple as she thought, Lin Youran is the future crown princess, and such a powerful thing will definitely not be wasted on her. She suspected that Lin Youran would hand over this soul control Gu to the crown prince, so that the prince could use this thing to keep the position of the prince and even seize the throne.

Of course, all this is her conjecture, and this matter still has to be discussed with Li Zeyi.

"Thank you for coming to tell me."

She didn't say these speculations to Mu Min, and she didn't want to involve her, besides, the emperor didn't like the Gu clan very much, and the people of Yan Ming Jingguo were not allowed to have anything to do with the people of the Gu clan, if the emperor knew that Li Zeyi had a good relationship with the saint of the Gu clan, I was afraid that it would cause unnecessary trouble.

Mu Min waved his hand and said indifferently: "I have a good relationship with Li Zeyi, you are his future wife, that is my friend, and you also agreed to help me monitor Dong Qin's old wife, and gave me such a novel poison." ”

Lin Zhuohua smiled slightly when he heard this: "I think it's almost lunch time, so it's better to stay and have lunch together." ”

Mu Min was not polite, and nodded: "Okay." ”

There was a lot of joy in the peach garden, and at this time, Lin Youran looked at Mama Dong, whose face was a little pale, frowned, and asked with a little concern and worry.

"Mama, what's the matter? When you came back from that day, you were always in a state of unrest. ”

Mama Dong pulled the corners of her mouth when she heard this, she didn't want to tell Lin Youran about these bad things, her little master just needed to happily wait to marry the prince and become the future princess. Barely bracing herself, she smiled.

"It's nothing, it's just that the more the emperor's birthday comes, the old slave is nervous, and he is a little uneasy."

Lin Youran didn't explore too much, she knew that Mama Dong didn't tell the truth, but she didn't care. Who has no secrets, and she knows in her heart that whoever betrays her, Mama Dong will not betray her.

"Yes, Hallomy is indeed near." Her eyes flickered as her eyes fell on the utensils on the table. This is a soul control Gu cultivated with her painstaking efforts, of course, it must be used on the blade.

"Mama, send a letter to the East Palace, asking Your Highness to take the time to meet you in that old place."

Mama Dong nodded, she knew that Miss was preparing to sacrifice the Soul Control Gu. But that's fine, the situation in Shangjing is very tense now. Everyone has already seen the fight between Prince Yi and the crown prince, and even the eldest prince has avoided his edge and stood with His Royal Highness the crown prince.

"Yes, the old slave will do it."

Li Zeyi returned to the palace in the evening, with a little tiredness on his face. As soon as he sat down to rest for a while, the butler asked to see him outside.

He rubbed his eyebrows, then leaned lazily in his chair: "Come in." ”

The housekeeper pushed the door in and told him what happened to Jing Gongzi in the morning. Before he finished speaking, he saw his prince passing by him like a gust of wind.
